\u201cWhile investigating the criminal case, we repeatedly questioned witness Emil Czeczko, a Polish soldier who had crossed into Belarus,” Alaksandar Rud\u017ako, a department head at the Investigative Committee, told a news conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“According to Czeczko, he personally participated in and witnessed the extrajudicial, systematic mass execution of 241 people from June 8 to June 19, 2021. Women and children were among those killed,” he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Czeczko helped Belarusian officers sketch Polish soldiers involved in the killings, he said, noting that the executions were led by a Polish counterintelligence officer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Czeczko’s testimony was the only evidence cited by Rud\u017ako to corroborate the charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Czeczko defected to Belarus and asked for political asylum in December 2021, citing his disagreement with Poland’s mistreatment of migrants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three months later he was found hanged in a Minsk apartment. He was buried in Belarus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
